Hi, i just downloaded your cool forum software.  For a sanity test i'm running it on my workstation/localhost before i put it to use on a web site.

In the Forum Administration pages, when i click on "Forum Configuration" i get the following error:

==================================================

HTTP 500.100 - Internal Server Error - ASP error
Internet Information Services

Technical Information (for support personnel)

Error Type:
Microsoft JScript compilation (0x800A03EC)
Expected ';'
/forum/admin/forum_configure.asp, line 1, column 7
Option Explicit
------^Browser Type:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)

Page:
GET /forum/admin/forum_configure.asp

Time:
Wednesday, November 12, 2003, 1:23:14 PM

================================================

I've created forums, setup users, posted mesages etc so everything else apears to be working.

Any ideas as to what this might be?

Congrats on goo bit of software by the way, i'll definately be purchasing the link remover!

Ben

The forum uses VbScript, it looks like you have changed the default language for ASP files in IIS from vbScript to JScript, this is what is corsing the problem.

Placing:-

<% @ Language=VBScript %>

At line 1 of any file that flags up this type of error will fix the problem, or set back the fdefault language for ASP pages in IIS to VbScript.

You are right, the default ASP language is Set to JavaScript, so i added the line at line one and it works fine.

Thanks for the hard work and help!
